Answer:
(M)_a = -8171 lb-ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
- We will first mark each weight from left most to right most.
Point: Weight: Moment arm r_a
G_3 W_g3 = 169 30*Cos(75) + 4.25
G_2 W_g2 = 220 30*Cos(75) + 2.5
G_1 W_g1 = 1500 10*cos(75)
Step 2:
- Set up a sum of moments about pivot point A, the expression would be as follows:
(M)_a = -W_g3*(30cos(75) + 4.25) - W_g2*(30*Cos(75) + 2.5) - W_g1*10*cos(75)
Step 3:
- Plug in the values and solve for (M)_b, as follows:
(M)_a = -169*(30cos(75) + 4.25) - 220*(30*Cos(75) + 2.5) - 1500*10*cos(75)
(M)_a = -2030.462559 -2258.205698 - 3882.285677
(M)_a = -8171 lb-ft
To divide 36/9 using the number line you have to jump from zero with length of 9 until reach 36, and the result will be the number of jumps.
I do the jumps by steps, but you can draw in the number line:
0. First jump from 0 to 9.
,
1. Second jump from 9 to 9+9=18.
,
2. Third jump from 18 to 18+9=27.
,
3. Fourth jump from 27 to 27+9=36.
,
4. Great!! We already reach 36.
So, we need four jumps of 9 to reach 36 from 0.
So, the result is 36/9=4
4- 2/3 (4-1/6) divided by 3/4
parenthesis first
4 - 2/3 (3 5/6) divided by 3/4
change to an improper fraction (6*3+5)/6
4 - 2/3 ( 23/6)divided by 3/4
4 - 46/18 divide by3/4
copy dot flip
4 - 46/18 * 4/3
4 - 23/9 * 4/3
4 - 92/27
get a common denominator of 27
4*27/27 -92/27
108/27 - 92/27
16/27
The answer to the question is D
